I was stunned, I lived in her house for more than two months, she usually didn't talk to me, and she didn't even give me a good face, how could she suddenly tell me this?

I was about to ask her, but remembering that she was deaf, I made a gesture of please to him, meaning to let her speak.

She smiled, put down the hoe in her hand, pulled me to the table and sat down, poured another cup of boiling water, put some rock sugar in it, and said, "Nine gentlemen, you also know that young people who are eight immortals will definitely attract gossip." During this time, many people saw my family and pointed fingers at him, although I couldn't hear what they said, but it wasn't a good thing to say, I want you to find another errand for him in the future, don't let him be a Eight Immortals for the rest of his life, can you promise me? ”

After saying that, she looked at me with a pair of eyes, and there was a hint of tiredness in her eyes.

I understand what she means, what mother doesn't want her children to have a decent job and get ahead.

Immediately, he nodded to her and didn't speak, after all, she couldn't hear what she was talking about.

Instead, he stammered, and reluctantly called out beside him, "Mom, my own life path, I decided by myself, I don't want to do other professions, I just want to follow Brother Jiu." ”

As if she heard the stammering words, she kicked her eyes at the stammer, turned her head, and said to me: "Nine Guys, remember what you promised me today, don't let Ming Ming be the Eight Immortals for a lifetime." ”

Looking at the mother and son in front of me, I remembered that Yang Yan had been abroad for more than two months, and he should be back soon.

Thinking of this, I didn't say anything more, and with the funeral utensils in hand, I gave a stammering look and walked out of the room.

After a while, he stammered and changed his clothes and followed, he took a flashlight, took a picture of me, and said, "Brother Jiu, it's dark, will you go again tomorrow?" ”

I shook my head and said, "There is only one five-year-old girl in the main family, if we don't go, if we die tonight, let the deceased be cold?" ”

After saying that, I walked towards the town, where I spent 10 yuan to rent a motorcycle and go straight to the village of Horse Walking.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the two of us came to the Walking Horse Village, which is worthy of being the most powerful village in our town, take the house as an example, all the red brick houses, the outer walls are pasted with white tiles, and there is a tile painting in the center of those tiles, which is Guan Gong.

This can't be helped, those who are dark outside, basically worship Guan Gong, and it is normal to paste Guan Gong's graphics on the house.

As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the village, the two of us were about to enter the village with funeral supplies, when we were stopped by a group of old women, who looked to be in their forties, about thirteen or fourteen, and the woman in the lead was older, about fifty years old.

I bent over them and said, "Aunties, what does this mean?" ”

The woman in the lead was stunned, glanced at me, and said with a smile: "Fine, you are the Chen Baxian that Director Lang said?" ”

I nodded and didn't speak.

"That's you, our village chief said that Shen Jun is not dead yet, and you can't bring funeral utensils into the village, otherwise it will cause trouble, you two put down your things and enter the village again." The woman in the lead looked at us with a smile.

As soon as I heard this, my face sank, the funeral supplies are the guys who eat with our eight immortals, how can they be thrown outside, this is like letting the chef lose the knife, besides, since ancient times, which village has no funeral utensils?

Immediately, I looked stunned and said, "Auntie, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, right?" ”

"What's not suitable, when you come to our Horse Walking Village, you have to follow the rules of our Walking Horse Village, and our village chief said that you can't bring funeral supplies into the village, so you can't bring them in." The woman in the lead looked at me defiantly and said, "Haven't you heard of following the customs of the locals, little girl? ”

Made, it's really too deceitful, let's not talk about whether Shen Jun is dead or not, just say the things in my hand, an ink fountain, a gong, two Taoist robes and some messy things.

These things are not only used for funerals, but also for some large-scale happy events, such as marriage, some people want to be more lively for happy events, they will ring gongs, and some people will ask Taoist priests to do some rituals for the newlyweds in order to have children early.

Thinking of this, I was a little angry, and replied to the woman angrily: "If you follow the customs of the country, you should follow the customs, not the so-called customs of you." ”

"Yo, I'm not old, but I have a big temper!" The woman in the lead sneered and said, "Sister, don't let go of the funeral utensils, don't want to enter the village." ”

I'm a little angry, there is no money to be made from this funeral, if it weren't for Lang Gao calling, I wouldn't even answer, let Lao Wang and them find a few people to handle the funeral here.

It's not that I'm not responsible for the deceased, but that Shen Jun is only 33 years old, and according to custom, he is not qualified to do funerals, so he can only be casually carried up the mountain and buried.

However, this society is progressing rapidly, and some customs are also changing, such as now, as long as the deceased is over 16 years old, they are eligible to hold funerals, as for what kind of funeral to do, it depends on the economic conditions of the main family.

Immediately, I stammered and prepared to go home, Made, you have many customs, and Lao Tzu will not serve.

The leading woman was a little anxious, grabbed me, immediately changed her face, bent down at me, and said, "Little man, don't be in a hurry to leave, the reason why we let you leave these things is also bitter." ”

"What's the problem?" I was stunned and asked in confusion.

"Ai!" She sighed and said, "Shen Jun has three homicides on his body, and the people in the village say that if people who have frequent deaths have murder cases, if they bring funeral supplies into the village, they will attract evil ghosts and ghosts. ”

As soon as I heard this, I couldn't cry or laugh, so I said: "Foolishness, funeral supplies are just tools, where will attract evil ghosts, even if they really attract evil ghosts, it is also the evil fate caused by the deceased himself, and it has nothing to do with funeral supplies." ”

"Fine, I can't talk too much, a few years ago, a young man died in our village, like Shen Jun, he was burdened with a homicide, and the person who did the funeral did not listen to our advice, so he brought in the funeral supplies in advance, and as a result, the funeral was full of strange things, and in the end, even the person who did the funeral died." She glanced at me and said lightly.

"Brother Jiu!" The stammerer called me on the side and said, "I've heard about this, the funeral was quite big, and even the leaders of the county town came down, by the way, the mayor was beaten, which was caused by that funeral." ”

"Such an evil sect?" I muttered, raised my eyes and looked at the feng shui direction of the walking horse village, the feng shui of this walking horse village is okay, it is like a mountain, and there is no yin qi gathering, so it should not cause trouble.
